Pick Best Wedding Dresses from Claire Pettibone Stunning Couture Fall 2015 Collection

Claire Pettibone’s Fall 2015 bridal collection is a triumph. Pure & simple.

Entitled ‘Gothic Angel,’ Claire sought inspiration from gothic cathedrals such as Westminster Abbey and Notre Dame.

‘Glimpse heavenly skies through intricate stained glass windows, while silver and gilded gold impart opulence beyond our dreams. Ornate facades, and intricate beaded glass and carvings are interpreted into French lace and silk embroidery. The iconic angel comes to life, not on the feathered wings of an imagined future, but here and now, as powerful and beautiful woman welcoming us to Heaven on Earth.’

The above thoughts from Claire Pettibone beautifully encapsulate the essence of her couture bridal Fall 2015 collection. What I love so much about her new designs is not only the attention to detail and the fabrics used, but that she has clearly designed a collection for the contemporary bride who wants to be fashionable, stylish, yet look like a beautiful classic bride at the same time.

Claire also knows that a bride wants to look amazing from all angles, including the back, which is why she has paid an enormous amount of attention to creating dresses with incredible back detailing. Although a bride is focused on her groom when she walks down the aisle, all her guests will be focused on what her gown looks like from the back, so it is imperative that the dress looks just as stunning as it does from the front.

Here are some of my favourite designs from her collection…
